It depends on interobject density and single object mass, I'd reckon. Having it redirect the orbit at velocity might be astronomically (!) low Also, I don't know it's trajectory relative to the solar plane; it might be ruled

I stared at that figure for about a minute and wondered at how friggin' satisfied they have to have been about it. It was and is really neat, even if the likelihood of its reality is low.
